Creating managed tests in VS2010 is pretty easy, but requires a small amount of extra work to be able to use Catch.
|
|
|
|
[pre-requisite - obviously, you'll also need Catch - my copy is in C:\Projects\Phil\Catch in the following examples...and I'm using the normal, multiple include files.]
|
|
|
|
## First, start by creating a new project
|
|
|
|
Choose 'File' ==> 'New' ==> 'Project' and select a new Visual C++ Test project:
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now we need to change some build options, so right click the project and choose 'Properties':
|
|
|
|
First, in the 'General' options, change 'Common Language Runtime Support' to use basic clr:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, Unicode will have been enabled - it is up to you whether to use Unicode or not - Catch will work with either setting.
|
|
|
|
Next, add Catch to the 'includes':
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
...and change the debug runtime to be a Debug DLL:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Now write a test
|
|
|
|
Next, delete the test code that the wizard provided in UnitTest1.cpp and write your own...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We can run this from the 'Test View' but be sure to select the option to 'Group By' Description if you want to see the Catch TEST_CASE names:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
From here, double clicking on the failure takes you to the failure description as normal, where you get links to the code and the output of what happened...
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now if you click the link for (in this case) "...unittest1.cpp: line 12" you get back to the problem:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And that's it!
|
|
|
|
## Running tests from the command line
|
|
|
|
Tests can also be run from the command line. [For VS2010 see these details](VS2010commandline.md)
|
|
|
|
## Creating a Catch console project
|
|
|
|
If you want to run Catch normally from the console, just create a new Windows Console app (you will need to turn off Unicode for this!) and add an additional .cpp file for `'main()'`. I usually add a file called main.cpp, like this:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
#define CATCH_CONFIG_MAIN
|
|
#include "catch.hpp"
|
|
```
